ArtSoup Elk River Community Arts Festival 2013 - Recap
ArtSoup had many exciting elements that came together to
create an actively engaging community arts festival. ArtSoup 2013 marked the 14th year
of ArtSoup, there were 25+ fine art and fine craft artists sales booths which included
local arts organizations. Performances
were held on the Great River Energy Stage everything from an interactive puppet
show to a dance rock-n-roll band. The
Arts Alliance Main Street Gallery held the Juried Art Exhibit with 30+
participating artists. Artist Laura Irwin-Schack
took home the prize for Best in Show with her pastel Poppies in the Pasture. The
Schroeder Studio held an exhibit in the hallway of the Granite Shores building;
the group enjoyed sharing their paintings with the local community. Kid’s art activities took place in a large
tent where kids made one-of-a-kind marble paintings, sculptural paper hats and
explored musical instruments. Reading Frenzy Corner had author Howard Mohr signing his book How to Talk Minnesotan and Minnesota themed kid's games, both were a smash hit! Enjoy some
snap shots from the day!
